    I've just got this new fish, Bumble bee Catfish, but nobody on the net knows alot about it? Can anyone tell me any useful facts about it? For example I'd love to know how long this fish is supposed to live for.

    shy fish, needs lot's of hiding places, as it always seek somewhere to hide. This is their mother nature as a dwarf cat. Feeding of live/frozen bloodworm. It needs some special care like, drop the bloodworm at the shelter where it's hiding after lights off.

    lifespan? a few weeks only in my feeder tank..[] sighhhh

    thanks for that, so far so good though, he has been in my tank for 5 days, he doesnt come out when there is any light, but when i turn all the lights out he comes out to eat. He looks ok, time will tell.

    thanks again.
